Kraft Kitchens Tips

Tucking the wings under the chicken prevents the tips from burning and helps balance the chicken better during cooking.

Cooking Know-How

The general rule for roasting a chicken is to bake the chicken at 350°F for 20 min. per pound. When testing for doneness, insert a meat thermometer into the thickest part of one of the thighs, being careful to not let the thermometer touch the bone.

very tasty, i put onion in the cavity instead of carrots and celery. delish!

My chicken was so tender that it was literally falling off the bone; this was my first attempt at roasting an entire chicken, and my family absolutely loved it.
Goes great with the Cheesy Broccoli Casserole recipe on here!

Very juicy and the veggies were great! Very easy to make. My 7year old even helped me with the brushing and stuffing. I also added onions.

Easy to prepare! Very Tasty! I (like others that rated this recipe) would leave out the carrots and the celery.

I love this chicken I've made almost the same thing several times.

Forget the carrots and celery. They won't impart enough flavor and then only to be thrown out (so wasteful!!) "Waste not, want not."

This was my dinner just last night. I did not use an entire bottle of dressing because I am too cheap!(I also used a bottle of balsamic vinigrette with basil) I poured about 1/4 Cup under the breast skin... a little inside... and I also added a small onion to the cavity. It was incredibly moist and my family loved it. ..... To save on time and another meal I roasted two chickens at the same time. That way we have either a couple of lunches in the fridge for my hubby who works 3-11 or I pick at it and make a yummy casserole of some kind.
